To one liter of acetone were added 50.0 g (0.31 mol) of 1,4-dihydroxynaphthalene. To the resulting solution then were added 95.0 g (0.69 mol) of powdered potassium carbonate and 65 ml (0.69 mol) of dimethyl sulfate. The resulting mixture was stirred at reflux for 18 hours after which it was diluted with two liters of water and then extracted with methylene chloride. The organic extracts were combined,.dried over sodium sulfate, and evaporated in vacuo to give a black oil. The oil was distilled in vacuo to give 12.5 g of 1,4-dimethoxynaphthalene as an orange crystalline solid. b.p. 155° C. at 5 mm Hg.
